Inky Paws Challenge #154 - Use Stripes Theme

  Hi everybody!  A new Inky Paws Challenge starts today!  You have until Friday, August 13th to get your entries in and have a chance to win a $20 store credit to Newton's Nook Designs online shop!  This is Inky Paws Challenge #154 - Use Stripes Theme.  I normally do not use stripes very often, so this challenge was a challenge for me!  It was fun creating cards outside of my normal box!

To start this card I cut a piece of smooth white cardstock using the large postage stamp die from the Framework Die Set.  I used the Serene Stripes Stencil with Distress Oxide Inks Squeezed Lemonade, Dried Marigold, and Kitsch Flamingo to create my background.  

Next, I stamped out this adorable doggie image and pawprint from the Fabulous Frenchies Stamp Set, colored them with Copic markers, and cut them out with their coordinating dies.

I then used the Fancy Edges Tag Die Set to cut my tag from white cardstock on which I blended the Squeezed Lemonade and Dried Marigold Distress Oxide Inks.  I used black pigment ink to stamp the sentiment, and clear heat embossed it for some shine!

I adhered my striped background to a pink A2 size cardbase.  I adhered the tag to my background with foam tape, and I also used foam tape to pop up the pup and pawprint for more dimension!
